Same goes for asthma medication. Epinephrine got removed from OTC options a few years ago, and now it's impossible to treat asthma without getting pushed into steroid treatments with whopping price tags.

It's actually back as an OTC, I only learned it was made available again after a scary ER visit. Check your local Walgreens!

Do you not have access to beta2 agonists such as salbutamol?
